This expansion introduces 12 new Manuscript Cards that set out to elevate the absurdist narrative of The Publish or Perish Game. These additions include four “sh*tpost” articles (e.g., “The Psychology of Clickbait: Why You’ll Never Believe the Answer!”) in various predatory journals that accept any Action Cards, not just Research Cards. 
Additionally, this expansion includes eight Manuscripts that are (marginally) significantly inappropriate on various standards (e.g., “Skyscraper Envy: A Freudian Analysis of Urban Skyline Competition”). Some of these cards grant unique abilities when published. The content of this expansion ranges from mild to wild depending on how imaginative you are. Obtain this expansion at your own risk. This expansion cannot function as a stand-alone game.
